Bellerin pays tribute to Wenger pep talk

The Reds surged to a 2-0 lead through goals from Philippe Coutinho and Mohamed Salah on Friday and would have been out of sight had they been more clinical when presented with some woeful home defending.

But Alexis Sanchez, Granit Xhaka and Mesut Ozil struck in five remarkable second-half minutes to nudge Arsenal into an unlikely lead, only for Roberto Firmino to grab a share of the spoils for the visitors.

Spanish defender Bellerin had no doubt where the credit deserved to go for inspiring Arsenal to show fighting spirit.
